Transforming a Shape by Scaling

You can scale geometry. Scaling transforms a solid, surface, or wire by increasing (enlarging) or diminishing it with a user-defined scale factor. It is possible to apply the Scale command one, two, or all axes.

Note: This command is available for solids, surfaces and wires.

Before you begin: You must have created a Natural Shape feature.
